..he's clearly not the player he was. It can't help at his age, though, that he's not getting regular game time. I'm accepting your point but perhaps he still has something to offer even playing regular bit parts on and off the bench.

That's genuinely worse than Oumar Niasse's YouTube compilation that included him scoring an own goal.
For all our discussion we are forgetting one salient fact , Koeman wants him.
Walsh has said he will drive to Manchester to pick him up.
If he's available and the finances work he is joining wether we like it or not

Played as a second striker he'd still be a very good option. If he's played outside and asked to press the opposition full back he'll be useless. If we use his link play and creativity he'd still easily get double figures for us which is more than any of our current lot behind Lukaku get.

If we sign Rooney then I just think it makes us look like total mugs.
Whisper it but he's finished.

It's the 'assists' that did it for me....pearoller passes a couple of feet away to a player 20-30 yards out who then slaloms into the area and scores.....I don't even remember 3 quality assists there

I totally accept the point that Rooney clearly isn't the player he was, maybe even a couple of years ago
What I would say is that Rooney, right throughout his career, has always struggled for form and match fitness when not playing regularly. He usually starts a season very slowly relative to other players because of the summer break.
His fleeting appearances for United this season cannot possibly have helped the situation. If we ended up signing him, I'd expect to see his form at least slightly improved on what he has shown this season if he was playing regularly.
Not advocating signing him, my opinion on that changes every day, just a point. He also, somehow, looks to me like he has lost weight this season

Signing Wayne Rooney shows that we only have ambition of avoiding relegation?
Either a lot of wind up merchants in this thread or a lot of lead in the water in some areas.
Rom is staying until Jan to see how we shape up...half due to lack of suitors, half due to the fact that Rooney is coming to play upfront/just behind/ make some bullets/spread the load for the markers.
...Or not.
...Or not.
It's China mate. We'd only get a look in if no deal can be done out there. And you can imagine how hard his agent will be trying for that!
a strong FF source has told my older brother its deffo on!
